Trial reflections on Barber and the Barrow murders and public anger
A lengthy, skeptical look at the trial outcomes of Charles Barber and the Fulmer couple murders.

It condemns penitentiary administration after recurring escapes by Archibald Barnes and calls for legislative investigations. It ends with editorials on political satire, editorial opportunism, and local civic concerns plus a note on Kenyon College election results.
